I really do not think it has anything to do with procmail. The

We have often had quota questions on this list. The answer has
always been that it's the MTA or the system, not procmail.
Moreover, running "strings `which procmial` | grep quota"
turns up nothing (what I expected).
I don't have a 3.22 source sitting on this machine, but I have a
3.15 source. The only example of the word "quota" in it
anywhere is in a program history note from 1994:
1994/06/30: v3.03
Limit the no. of retries on lockfiles if the recipient is over
quota (procmail & lockfile)
What's weird is that that particular error message is listed *verbatim* in
the DIAGNOSTICS section of 'man procmail'
Quota exceeded while writing "x"
The filesize quota for the recipient on the
filesystem containing "x" does not permit deliv-
ering the message to the file.
That's what made me think it might be inside procmail itself. It makes no
mention of this error being MTA specific.
